    “Universal suffrage should rest upon universal education. To this end, liberal and permanent provision should be made for the support of free schools by the State governments, and, if need be, supplemented by legitimate aid from national authority.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “Half a league, half a league,
    Half a league onward,
    All in the valley of Death
    Rode the six hundred.
    “Forward the Light Brigade!”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “For I had expected always
    Some brightness to hold in trust,
    Some final innocence
    To save from dust;”
    —Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
